Is a serial killer still roaming free, taunting Tessa with a trail of clues? She has no choice but to confront old ghosts and lingering nightm.
As the clock ticks toward the execution, Tessa fears for her sanity, but even more for the safety of her teenaged daughter.
What they don\'t know is that Tessa and the scared, fragile girl she was have built a fortress of secrets.
The legal team appeals to Tessa to undergo hypnosis to retrieve lost memories--and to share the drawings she produced as part of an experimental therapy shortly after her rescue.
An innocent life hangs in the balance.
But the flowers alone are not proof enough, and the forensic investigation of the still-unidentified bones is progressing too slowly.
Terrified at the implications--that she sent the wrong man to prison and the real killer remains at large--Tessa turns to the lawyers working to exonerate the man awaiting execution.
In the desolate cold of February, she is shocked to discover a freshly planted patch of Black-Eyed susans--a summertime bloom--just outside her bedroom window.
Now, almost two decades later, Tessa is an artist and single mother.
Tessa\'s testimony about those tragic hours put a man on death row.
Ever since, the press has pursued her as the lone surviving "Black-Eyed Susan," the nickname given to the murder victims because of the yellow carpet of wildflowers that flourished above their shared grave.
As a sixteen-year-old, Tessa Cartwright was found in a Texas field, barely alive amid a scattering of bones, with only fragments of memory as to how she got there.
The lucky one.
